Helloe broken-wing ( i like your name),

Im not sure how to answer your questions. You ask if I would like to be asked questions????? MMMmm, depends on the question? and sort of everyone is different.

I have not spoken to anyone, except my therapist, about my other people. If a friend started to ask me about it I would find it very hard to deal with. But that could just be me, it may well be that other people would be happy to talk.

I think you should take things slow and see what your freind brings to the table? It may well be that he will raise it himself, it may be that he wont, I dont know.

Im glad your friend is not avoiding you. Must be a good person that you care enough to find out more. I think that is very good of you.

Be careful, look after you and your freind and I wish you both all the suucess in the world.

Thanks for the compliment on my name!

Telling me that you've only talked to your therapist is interesting, but as you said everyone is different. What I meant by asking you if you minded answering questions was, if a friend knew you had DID, would you welcome questions on how you deal with it, or what happens to you, or would you rather tell the person when you are ready?

I do think taking it slow is the best for now, and I will follow his lead, so to speak. Since I've only known him a short time and he has shared his alter with me (and we've also talked about it when he has been "intact") I get the impression I could ask anything. But, as I said I don't want to overstep boundaries...I respect him too much.

The question about losing time was more because I was feeling sad that he hadn't contacted me for a while. I have got to learn to take it one day at a time and be patient.

Thanks so much for your help, Audrey1!
